    You have the file 'command.tcl' already!

    as mentioned above, you could use the contents of command.tcl file as a very nice reference for your script.

    Do one time the operation in HM manually and you will get the main commands/APIs. Use the non-interactive option in automesh.

    Then after having the main commands adapt and check the HM Reference Guides (Help) for these commands

     

    1. select a element

    *createmark elems 1 some_number

    or 

    *createmarkpanel elems 1 'select 1 element'

     

    2. select elements by face

    *appendmark (check the help)

     

    3. mesh (quads)

    run the commands based on the command.tcl for meshing with your options (quad only, element size,,,....)
